1 Material Safety Data Sheet ROHM AND HAAS KOREA CO., LTD. Product name: AMBERLITE PWA10 Ion Exchange Resin Issue Date: Print Date: ROHM AND HAAS KOREA CO., LTD. encourages and expects you to read and understand the entire (M)SDS, as there is important information throughout the document. We expect you to follow the precautions identified in this document unless your use conditions would necessitate other appropriate methods or actions. 1. PRODUCT AND COMPANY IDENTIFICATION Product name: AMBERLITE PWA10 Ion Exchange Resin Recommended use of the chemical and restrictions on use Identified uses: Ion exchange and/or Adsorption process COMPANY IDENTIFICATION ROHM AND HAAS KOREA CO., LTD. A Dow Chemical Group Company 412 TEHERAN-RO (DAECHI-DONG) GANGNAM-GU SEOUL TEUGBYEOLSI SOUTH KOREA Customer Information Number: 82-(0) SDSQuestion@dow.com EMERGENCY TELEPHONE NUMBER 24-Hour Emergency Contact: Local Emergency Contact: HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION Classification of the substance or mixture This product is not hazardous per the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling (GHS). Other hazards 3. COMPOSITION/INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS This product is a mixture. Component Common Name CASRN Concentration KECI Number Trademark of The Dow Chemical Company ("Dow") or an affiliated company of Dow Page 1 of 8

2 Weak base anion exchange polymer Not Required >= <= 51.0 % - Water DIHYDROGEN OXIDE >= <= 56.0 % KE FIRST AID MEASURES Description of first aid measures Skin contact: Wash off with soap and water. If skin irritation persists, call a physician. Eye contact: Rinse with plenty of water. If eye irritation persists, consult a specialist. Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed: Aside from the information found under Description of first aid measures (above) and Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed (below), any additional important symptoms and effects are described in Section 11: Toxicology Information. Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed Notes to physician: Treatment of exposure should be directed at the control of symptoms and the clinical condition of the patient. 5. FIREFIGHTING MEASURES Suitable extinguishing media: Water spray Carbon dioxide (CO2) Foam Dry chemical Unsuitable extinguishing media: Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture Hazardous combustion products: Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Toxic fumes are generated when material is exposed to fire or fire conditions. Cool closed containers exposed to fire with water spray. Advice for firefighters Fire Fighting Procedures: Remain upwind. Avoid breathing smoke. Special protective equipment for firefighters: In the event of fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus. 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures: Appropriate protective equipment must be worn when handling a spill of this material. See SECTION 8, Exposure Controls/Personal Protection, for recommendations. If exposed to material during clean-up operations, see SECTION 4, First Aid Measures, for actions to follow. Environmental precautions: No special environmental precautions required. Page 2 of 8

3 Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up: Keep spectators away. Floor may be slippery; use care to avoid falling. Transfer spilled material to suitable containers for recovery or disposal. 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE Precautions for safe handling: NOTE: This product as supplied is a whole bead resin and may produce slight eye irritation. However, the ground form of this resin should be treated as a severe eye irritant. Worker exposure to ground resins can be controlled with local exhaust ventilation at the point of dust generation, or use of suitable personal protective equipment (dust/mist air-purifying respirator and safety goggles). Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles; beads may fracture. If frozen, thaw at room temperature. Properly designed equipment is vital if these resins are to be used in conjunction with strong oxidizing agents such as nitric acid to prevent a rapid build-up of pressure and possible explosion. Consult a source knowledgeable in the handling of these materials before proceeding. Conditions for safe storage: Keep from freezing. Other data: CAUTION: Do not pack column with dry ion exchange resins. Dry beads expand when wetted; this expansion can cause glass column to shatter. 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION Control parameters Exposure limits are listed below, if they exist. Exposure limits have not been established for those substances listed in the composition, if any have been disclosed. Exposure controls Engineering controls: none Protective measures: Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped with an eyewash facility. Individual protection measures Eye/face protection: Use safety glasses with side shields (ANSI Z87.1or approved equivalent). Skin protection Hand protection: Cotton or canvas gloves. Respiratory protection: No personal respiratory protective equipment normally required. 9.
